Generally, open source refers to a computer program in which the source code is available to the general public for use and/or modification from its original design. Open-source code is meant to be a collaborative effort, where programmers improve upon the source code and share the changes within the community. Typically this is not the case, and code is merely released to the public under some license.
Cajun French Language Dictionary. Cajun French is different from the language spoke in France. The Acadians migrated from France over 300 years ago. Just as Americans speak English differently after being separated from England for hundreds of years, the same is true of the Acadians. French Cajuns and French citizens can understand each other, but with difficulty.
The word Cajun comes from the word Acadian, just as Injun is a variant of the word Indian.. So, the Acadians were French settlers in 17th-18th century Canada. When they were exiled, they were no longer a single group.But the Acadian people survived in other cultures ... wanted to use a term that accurately described the people and culture. I had seen the word Acadian used (mainly in Canada or when referring to the Cajuns' past) and the word Cajun used (for Louisiana descendants of Acadians).
